I came on this site 9 months ago,prompted by my chronic back and thigh pain.every bit of advice I received was helpful..after being chronic, having MRI, loads of drugs, and then a nerve root block procedure..guess what? I have walked 5 miles very night for the past week, have thrown away the walking stick and feel amazing! So to all the pain sufferers, do not give up, try and stay optimistic...and I hope all good health comes your way,

Thanks to everyone for your sympathy and kind and helpful advice!

The nerve block was the first significant thing..was about 80 per cent improved...that was in April. Since thn have had physio and as the pin then seemed to b mainly in the hip lots of rubbing etc round hip area. It's only been this week but s I say totally amazing!
